Episode notes

In a new solo HOMETRUTH segment, Louise hops on a solo episode to ask 'why does no one talk about how hard a healthy relationship is after years of toxic ones? '

Louise talks about the truths you need to accept, why healthy relationships feel uncomfortable after toxic ones, what to do about it, and more, including:

⇢ healthy love after toxic love

⇢ suspicion & being hyper vigilant to every future partner

⇢ self sabotage & why you might just want to f**k it all up

⇢ why healthy sometimes feels boring or gives you the “ick”

⇢ the nervous system activation of “butterflies” & attachment trauma

⇢ what we need to learn about baby butterflies; and

⇢ why even the sex might feel different in a healthy relationship.

Recommended listening on toxic relationships:

⇢#16 - how to deal with out of bounds relationships / why we keep it quiet

⇢#67 - ‘hard work partner or toxic abuse?’

⇢#24 - how to leave a toxic relationship, safely

⇢#64 - why are you attracted to people’s confusing behaviour?
